Perhaps.....if one only looks at the people whom
appear to be power mad foaming at the mouth, ready to
attack anything on the slightest sign of "injustice"
without doing all their homework on it
first....then..I would say that letter was close to
being correct. BUT. In fact...the Gov IS showing many
many signs of adopting the police state mentality and
has been since the 20's. Just look at how they pass
all the crap bills and laws we find out about only
when violating one! this is not a trait of a really
free democracy. Or...the ability to confiscate peoples
homes/land on a whim...a "here is a check..take it or
not..we are taking your property."..I have seen this
happen right here where I live more times that I care
to recall.then we have the Gov stepping in and
regulating this and that almost every day. Example:
the net. the cybersquatting issue.,censorship,school
policy's,HMO's,Insurance companies,many utility
companies are really controlled by Gov. regs,many of
the things being talked about on the house floor are
alarming ! wiretapping is a direct violation of our
rights,but..do they care? obviously not,as they have
their automatic built in excuses.And should that apply
to 'every' US citizen? I think not. Perhaps for those
whom have already given the Gov. a probable cause to
monitor,like being a habitual criminal, or known drug
dealer/pusher,or sex offender,terrorist,that sort.Not
John/Jane Doe,smalltown,USA...it does follow the
police state procedure though. I do not buy into the
whimpering excuses ,when cornered and demanded
explainations,that they must watch "everybody" in
turns because of security reasones. the Gov already
has the profiles of almost everybody on file...Drv
liscences,etc. the info tacked in those files is
extensive enough to determine whom bears watching and
who does not. wire tapping is just another way to
excercise their controll and intimidation
tactics.And,to boot...this wiretapping seems quite
inefficent in actually capturing these criminals!why
did they not jump on the hate sites and the cult sites
that are acting on their "promisses"..or presenting a
clear danger to others???why allow groups like the KKK
to march??? plenty of toher mud=ch more worthwhile
groups have been repeatedly turned down...and the
neonatzies??? these "people" are actually ploice
protected!!! screwed up,if ya ask me!!!NO....just
harassing criminals (some of them anyway) is not
solving anything,but keeping everybody
else(reg.civilians) nervous and worried, and causing
the 'bad guys" to laugh and continue their
activities.The Gov controlls in sneaky ways
comerce,med.professions,hospitals,schools,law
firms,BB(but this is more like a bed
partnership)on&on...there is much more, but it has
been a loooong day.ya get the gist.
peace
